A couple of weeks ago I attended the Secret Santa London Meet Up organised by the lovely Clare and Emma. The plan behind it was we were all given a ‘Secret Santa’, another blogger that we were buying the gift for, and would all meet up in London to exchange gifts and eat mince pies and have a chat. I went along with Bex and of course no meet up would go ahead without some sort of drama with us, and this time we got completely lost, despite having gone to Tiger Tiger in Piccadilly Circus three times together, oops. And as usual I completely forgot to take any photos of the event as I was so busy chatting to other bloggers so I have nothing to put up in my post, Oops.
At the event we were given some lovely goody bags organised by Emma. They came with some great goodies from Simply Be, Bomb Cosmetics and Apivita, and I think my favourite thing must be the “I love blogging” sign by Mums Crafts. There was also some chocolates and candy canes but of course I ate that before I remembered to take photos..
We were also given our Secret Santa gifts and I was really impressed with mine. I got a bottle of Lush Snow Fairy (my favourite shower gel ever!), a Revlon Lip Butter in the shade Berry Smoothie, a face mask, and a Baylis & Harding Beauticology gift set including the most amazing fluffy socks, Gingerbread Foot Soak Crystals and Vanilla Frosting Foot Lotion. I was sat joking with Bex and Clare that who ever got me knew me really well as I loved my Secret Santa and then Clare admitted it was her! After the event we all split up different ways and I wondered off with Bex, Clare and her friend Natalie to wonder around the shops, and I even let Clare influence me to pick up a MAC lipstick.
I had such a great time at the Secret Santa London Meet Up, and the thought behind it from Clare and Emma was brilliant. And thank you to my Secret Santa *cough* Clare *cough*.
I’m absolutely rubbish at Christmas gift ideas for the men in my life, I never know what to get them. Luckily my brother is a fan of Lynx products, and this year they’ve got some great gift sets available. The Lynx Peace Washbag Gift Pack For Him includes a Deodrant Bodyspray, Shower Gel and Natural Look Hair…
I’ve always loved photography ever since I was a little girl. I just loved taking photos of things, and then learning how to edit them on Photoshop, and just generally looking a good photographs other people have taken. Back when I was at college I did an A level in photography, and whilst doing it…
A brand I hear a lot of positive things about is The Bluebeards Revenge. I’ve seen numerous male bloggers raving about their products recently, and it’s a brand I want to explore for my other half. Not being the expert in men’s grooming, I don’t know much about their products. But I have seen many…
Sleek have recently released their latest ‘nude collection’ and after seeing many blog posts on it, I had to get my hands on it! Nude’s really call out to me, I’m a massive fan of a nude look, all of my favourite eye shadows are the basic nudey/brown colour, I like the look of ‘minimal’ make up,…
Now that we’ve been thrown into the autumn and winter months I like to pick out darker colours for my nails. Gone are the light pastel shades to be replaced with darker reds, blues, and blacks. One of my favourite colours for the darker months is Models Own Thunder and Lightening. Normally I wouldn’t go…
Soap & Glory are one of my favourite brands. For years now I’ve been browsing the range in Boots, and trying out several of their prodcuts. I don’t know if its the cute pink packaging or the scent, but I just love Soap & Glory. A couple of months back I wrote about my love…
